A 12-year-old swimmer was nearly disqualified from a meet for wearing a swimsuit. Sarah Lyons said her daughter Leidy Gallona wore the swimsuit in the wake of Amir Locke's death and because the Black Lives Matter movement is important to her as a woman of color. According to the Duluth Area Family YMCA, which sponsored the event Sunday at Superior High School, the bathing suit went against USA Swimming's policy that bans political language.
